After weeks, more than a month, of researching and reading on GPS units, I finally made up my mind and got my 720!! My husband ordered it on Saturday and it came to the house on Tuesday. My husband wasn't going to let me open it until Christmas, being that it is my Christmas gift and all. After a day of begging and pleading, he finally caved in and let me open it up.
I opened up the box this morning before going to work thinking that I would at least be able to perform the initial backup as recommended here. I popped in the HOME cd and it installed fine. I believe it installed version 1.6-something..? It didn't prompt me for any updates (I thought there was a v 2.0 of HOME now ). I then turned on my 720 and set the preferences. I plugged in the dock to the USB on my computer, connected the 720 to the dock and powered it on. However, HOME doesn't recognize the device. I was never asked if I wanted to connect the 720. So I clicked on the backup tab on the HOME program but then it told me to connect the 720 - which it already was connected. I didn't have time to further figure it out b/c I had to go to work (bummer).
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
